Previous studies have reported contradictory behavior on the influence of salinity on
enhanced oil recovery (EOR) chemicals like surfactants, polymers, and nanoparticles …

Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) show promise as advanced materials for enhanced oil
recovery (EOR) due to their distinct physicochemical properties. However, their tendency to …

Drilling fluids' rheological and filtration qualities have been discovered to be improved by
graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs). Research has demonstrated that adding GNPs to water …

Retarders are used to prevent hydration of oilwell cement by prolonging thickening time and
setting time, giving enough time for cement slurry application under deep and high …

Nanoparticles have been used to improve the properties of oilfield polymers however, at
higher and prolonged temperature, dihydroxylation of the bonds occurs decreasing the …

Recent studies on oil-foam interaction using different types of oil were limited to the aspect of
alkane chain length, density and viscosity of crude oil. However, oil polarity toward foam …

Surfactant flooding is a recognized technique within the realm of chemical enhanced oil
recovery (CEOR), to enhance oil recovery in cases of continual depletion in conventional oil …

Abstract Drill Stem Testing (DST) plays a crucial role in the petroleum industry, particularly in
understanding a formation's behavior under production conditions. DST is instrumental in …

While water alternating gas (WAG) injection is a prevalent technique in enhanced oil
recovery, it faces significant challenges in heterogeneous and high permeability reservoirs …

In many nations, oily sludge is considered hazardous waste. Conventional techniques of
